Subject: TAB:  I Got a Name by Jim Croce

I Got a Name
by Jim Croce (from His Greatest Hits)

I don't remember if I figured this out on
my own, or with a tab.  In either case, I don't
have, and can't find, a tab file for this song
(for the key it's in on Photographs & Memories),
so I figured I'd make one.

E (022100@1)                  B (x2444x@1)                C#m (x13321@4)Like the pine trees linin' the windin' road
        A (x02220@1)  B (x2444x@1)     EI (022100@1)got a name, I got a name
E (022100@1)               B (x2444x@1)                   C#m (x13321@4)Like the singin' bird and the croakin' toad
        F# (244322@1)          BI (x2444x@1)got a name, I got a name

G#m (133111@4)             A (x02220@1)             E (022100@1)        G# (xx1114@1)  And I carry it with me like my daddy did
                 C#m (x13321@4) F# (244322@1)             BBut (x2444x@1)I'm livin' a dream    that he can't give

G#m (133111@4)              AMovin' (x02220@1)me down the highway,
G#m (133111@4)               C#mRollin' (x13321@4)me down the highway
A (x02220@1)             B (x2444x@1)                *(x2)

(solo: This is kinda' close.  He does a lot
 of slides, hammerons, pulloffs, bends, etc.
 These notes are right, though.)
